Your reraise was too small. Either call or make a pot-sized raise.

I don't see how you can fold. Given the action, Villian looks like QQ. Nice hand.

What does this size of a reraise accomplish here OP?

Re: Destined to lose stack??
 

Preflop is where you lost this hand.

Wihtout reads I fold this hand. If you raise, raise to like $18.

Minraise there was trash.

I see Kurt what you mean. I should have pressured him pre flop. Villain had 10 10

Re: Destined to lose stack??
 

The min-reraise tells you nothing. The villain is pretty much compelled to call that no matter what they hold unless they're on a complete steal.

Next time-

1. Please select 2+2 in the converter
2. Do not include any action after the SB push- this inludes turn and river cards.
3. Do not name your post, "why did I lose", just say "50NL, AKo in BB facing raise and reraise" In other words, we don't want to know if you won or lost.
4. Show stack sizes! This is critical in knowing whether to raise or fold or even call in this hand. Any answer made without this information is utterly worthless.

Re: Destined to lose stack??
 

There are few situations in which clicking the minraise button is the correct move. Here you have to be afraid that you see a flop 4 way with you in bad absolute and relative position. So a reraise is ok. But make it meaningfull. And everything Antinome said [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
